Solar Close Coupled Operating / Installation Manual Issue 7 - 16/9/10
IMPORTANT INFORMATION & WARNINGS
Gas boosted models
•
Do not touch the flue outlet or do not insert any objects into the flue outlet.
•
Keep flammable materials, spray cans, fuel containers, trees, shrubs and pool
chemicals etc. well clear of the flue outlet.
•
Do not use the gas types other than those designated on the data plate. For
example, do not use Propane/Butane gas mixtures on appliances marked Propane
Gas.
•
Do not use Propane gas on appliances marked as Natural gas and vice versa.
WATER TEMPERATURE
The water gets heated by the solar energy contributed from the sun and heats the water
until the water at the base of the storage cylinder reaches approximately 65°C. At this
time water at the hot outlet can be up to 88°C. Continued heating is prevented by the
‘No Load’ protection, a Thermo-arrestor (TA) valve that prevents water passing from the
cylinder to the collectors. During periods of low solar gain, supplementary heating
occurs to a minimum of 60°C as required.
TURNING ‘
OFF’
THE WATER HEATING SYSTEM
If you plan to be away for only a few nights, we suggest you leave the water heating system switched on.
If it is necessary to switch off the water heater, do so as outlined below:
Electric Boosted systems
•
Switch off the electric supply to the supplementary heating element. The switch is usually marked and
located in the electricity meter box of the dwelling.
•
Switch off the electric supply to the solar controller and pump.
Gas Boosted systems
•
Switch off the electric supply to the gas booster.
•
Switch off the electric supply to the solar controller and pump.
TURNING ‘ON’ THE WATER HEATING SYSTEM
Electric Boosted system
•
Switch on the electric supply to the supplementary heating element(s). The switch is usually marked and
located in the electricity meter box of the dwelling.
•
Switch on the electric supply to the solar controller pump. Electric and solar water heating will now occur as
required. It may take a number of hours before hot water is available.
Gas Boosted systems
•
Switch on the electric supply to the gas booster.
•
Switch on the electric supply to the solar controller and pump. Solar water heating will now occur. Hot
water is available immediately from the gas booster when hot water tap is opened, irrespective of solar
heat gain.
WATER QUALITY
The water quality of most public supplies is suitable for the water heating system. The water quality from bore
wells is generally unsuitable for the water heating system. Refer to separate 'Warranty Terms and Conditions'
document for water quality parameters and how they affect the warranty conditions. If in doubt about the water
quality, have it checked against the parameters listed in the warranty conditions. The system is not suitable as a
pool or spa heater.
DRAINING AND FILLING THE WATER HEATING SYSTEM
•
Draining or filling normally occur only during installation or servicing and must be carried out by an
authorised person.
To meet Australian regulatory requirements, supplementary heating temperature settings
must be at least 60°C.
